Conference theme
We hear a lot about projects that fail, normally in quite a spectacular way, but what about those unsung heroes of successful projects? Join us whilst we hop on board a plane to Colombia to look at new and novel practices that supported the successful delivery of a naval and maritime R&D project. Take a step into the world of defence where we discuss how to avoid the mistakes of the past and see what projects of the future look like. Get involved with our discussion panel where we delve into the changes that we are facing around hybrid working and demonstrating delivery of Social Value.
Most importantly, learn, knowledge share and network as we discuss how you as a project professional can help shape and deliver the Beautiful Projects of tomorrow.
